Cookie Bowl Bird's Nest Dessert

Dessert is one of my favorite things to make. I think mostly because it brings everyone together. Who can resist a sweet treat? Maybe, have some coffee while the kids dig in. While any dessert is good dessert, cute desserts win me over every time. I love being able to find a dessert that not only taste fantastic but looks like it could have bought professionally. These cookie bowl bird nests are exactly that. They are so cute and not hard to make. Plus, they give people something to talk about.

It takes a cookie and turns it into something special. This Cookie Bowl Bird’s Nest Dessert would great for a spring bake sale or party too, not just for Easter. This set of cookie bowls are ready for Easter dinner but the bowl itself can be changed up for any occasion simply by changing what you place inside. Use the cookie bowls for ice cream during a birthday party, add chocolate pudding and cookie crumb topping, or even add fruit and whipped cream for a lighter dessert. The possibilities are endless.
